Not at all under pressure. Can broken. Terrible fill. Beer tastes good even though it’s flat.

Very hazy deep copper and bronze coloured body with a thick three to four centimetre tall rich tan head. Aroma of pine, resin, grapefruit, citrus, with bunches of both malt and alcohol. Medium-bodied; Rich, astringent and medicinal flavours dominate, with a touch of alcohol, pungent resinous hops with a lot of pine and grapefruit, but also a good support of malt and a touch of sugars on the finish, from fruits and a tiny bit of candy sugar, all ending with a nice hop bitterness that isn't super pungent. Aftertaste is nice and rich, resembling that of a West Coast IPA or a nice old-school Imperial IPA with dank, fresh hop notes and some light sweetness with citrus, apricots and a great malt backbone. Overall, this one grew on me and shows very nicely at the end, but the smell and initial bite are a bit strong and medicinal. Great to try, especially fresh, of course! I sampled this twelve ounce bottle, purchased from Harris Teeter in Arlington (Pentagon Row), Virginia on 20-April-2020 for US$1,87 sampled at my house here in Washington, a few blocks away on 29-April-2020.
